*"With financial backing from the likes of Michael Dell and other venture
capitalists, open source upstart Nginx has edged out Microsoft IIS
(Internet Information
Server)<http://www.infoworld.com/t/application-servers/nginx-overtakes-microsoft-no-2-web-server-183079>
to
hold the title of second-most widely used Web server among all active
websites. What's more, according to Netcraft's January 2012 Web Server
Survey, Nginx over the past month has gained market share among all
websites, whereas competitors Apache, Microsoft, and Google each lost
share."*

Shows how web-unaware I am: I've never even heard of Nginx. But I'll Google
it now.
